Frequently asked questions

How soon can I get my order?

Normally if your order by 1pm you can have your delivery the next day! Note delivery Days are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. We cannot deliver on Mondays.  We cannot guarantee delivery times.  We can request a delivery time from the courier company but there is no guarantee it will be delivered at that specific time.

Can I get a Saturday delivery?

Sometimes. This really depends on what part of New Zealand it is to be delivered. Some areas do not get serviced by the courier on a Saturday. (Please note Saturday deliveries do incur an extra courier charge and need to be ordered by phone order rather than online).

What do I do when I receive my order?

When you receive your order from the courier take the desserts out of the polystyrene box and put them in the fridge until you are ready to consume them. (Do not store them in the fridge or freezer inside the chilly bin / polystyrene airpop box they have been delivered to you in.)

What time will my delivery arrive?

You will be able to track your delivery with the tracking information we send you after your order has been dispatched.

Deliveries to business addresses  are usually made by 10 am.  Deliveries residential addresses are usually made by midday.  But all deliveries can be made up until 5 pm depending on couriers run and weather.

But please note: Due to volume or weather conditions the couriers delivery cycle may be compromised. In this case your parcel can arrive any time of day up until end of day. If no one is home your package will be left somewhere safe and secure on your property.

Can I request a delivery time or can the courier call me on the arrival of my purchase?

We cannot guarantee a delivery time.  Couriers will not guarantee any request for a specific time. 
We suggest ordering your product one day in advance if you require them for a party or social function. That way you do not have to stress about waiting for a delivery the day of the big event. 

We cannot get the courier to call you when your package arrives but you will get email notification it has been delivered

What do I do with the Polystyrene and gel pack?

You should recycle these by re-using them for things at home. Have you still got the ice pack, its handy for keeping chilled foods when travelling.  The polystyrene box can be used for keeping chilled food for family picnics, fishing, barbecues.
We want to keep NZ clean and green, so if necessary please send them back. We will recycle them.
